Mobilize.Net today announced a new automated conversion tool to migrate legacy ASP.NET Web Forms applications to Angular, HTML5

Mobilize.Net today announced a new automated conversion tool to migrate legacy ASP.NET Web Forms applications to Angular, HTML5, and ASP.NET Core. ASP.NET Web Forms is a legacy programming framework that used a “drag and drop” designer—familiar to desktop application development—for web applications. Launched with .NET 1.0, the technology is now regarded as obsolete and not compatible with .NET Core.

Mobilize.Net, using its patented automated source code migration technology, has developed tooling to convert ASP.NET Web Forms client code to HTML and CSS using the Angular web framework and Progress Kendo UI user interface elements. Application business logic is converted automatically to ASP.NET Core, the most up-to-date version of Microsoft‘s popular web server technology.

“Business software is critical to organizations and enterprises,” said Tom Button, Chairman and CEO of Mobilize.Net. “Many organizations still struggle with overwhelming technical debt. With today’s announcement, Mobilize.Net is confirming our commitment to providing client/server application migration software and tools to eradicate technical debt.”

The ASP.NET migration tool is in early beta form and available for limited customer trials. More information can be found at https://www.mobilize.net/products/app-migrations/webmap-aspnet-webforms.

Mobilize.Net is also a sponsor of .NET Conf: Focus on Windows. .NET Conf is a free, one-day livestream event that features speakers from the community and Microsoft teams working on Windows desktop apps and making them great on the latest .NET 5. The virtual conference is being held on February 25, 8AM-5PM PST.
